Default try this trick

I'm a size 2 mother of 3 from Staten Island. Before you all hate me I must say
I work very hard to stay this way. Excersise daily (and I'm talking breaking
sweat and at least 45 minutes) I try to eat healty during the week. Weekends
all bets are off. Do this it helps. Drink water lots of it and alway add ice
cubes. Your body burns 300 calories a day to metabolize 64 oz of ice water.
The water had to be brought down to the right tempeture for digestion and this
burns calories. So remember the ice. It also speeds of the metabolisiom win
win situation. Good luck.

Only history from you are two postings in a 15 period, one says you
exercise 30 minutes a day, and one says you exercise 45 minutes a day,
both emphasizing how thin and tiny you are (pretty close to the bottom
end of the healthy BMI for your height). As someone who is also a mom
of three, who works outside the home, must be nice to have that much
time to devote to fitness.

No mention of overcoming a former weight problem, as might be
appropriate to a support group. More a tone of ...well, I'm trying to
be nice and figure out why I shouldn't think you are a troll.

On the ice cube front
To melt a 3/4-ounce 0-degree-F ice cube and raise its temperature to
98.6 F requires only 2.9 calories. If you do this in one minute, the
chewing and swallowing typically burns another 0.6 calories, making a
total expenditure of 3.5 calories per cube. Therefore, to lose a pound
(equivalent to 3500 calories), you'll need to eat 1000 ice cubes, never
mind what it might do to your teeth.

I smelled something trollish about those posts too.

If that worked there wouldn't be a fat person to be
found.

Do this it helps.


For many on ASD it would be a disaster. Eating what
I want on weekends has a simple effect: Eating what
I want every day and regaining all the way back to
what I started at. There are certain foods I *must*
avoid forever or I'm screwed. A plan like yours
would have never taught me what they are.

It only takes about 70 calories to warm up two quarts of ice water,
not 300.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/question447.htm
details the numbers, but they miss an important point:

Another factor is that one's body is releasing excess heat through
the skin and respiration almost all the time. Because of this,
it is highly questionable whether warming up cold water uses any
*additional* calories at all, rather than just having to release a
little less heat through it's other methods.

Kelly-Aplin posts from Compuserve, this one was from AOL.
But AOLers are about to lose their newsgroup access, anyway.
With any luck this one won't figure out how to find other means
of posting to newsgroups.

The problem with some people is that they assume that because they
have found something that works for them that it will work for all
people, without taking into account that each of us does have
slightly different needs in terms of when and what we can eat.

I am only starting out on my new WOL but I already know from other
weight loss attempts that if I eat cheese (the full fat, delicious
kind) I'm going to be sorry I did because it will set me off on a
food binge from which it will be difficult to recover.

There are probably many people who don't have these food triggers,
and they might be able to eat anything, but I suspect that there are
many people who will have to avoid certain things forever in the
same manner as ex-smokers must never light up again and
ex-alcoholics must never allow alcohol to cross their lips again.
